      If we’re talking about the part where he poses with arms out and basically goes “and that’s why we’re better than you!”, then pat was pretty on point, THAT is the bad part of it. The supposedly better person still clearly and obviously suffering from human flaws despite claiming it to.

      @@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat Honestly I watched the old channel's let's play when it came out years ago, and that's my one experience with the game, so maybe it's the same scene but I cannot remember if he does that.
      But as far as I remember, that's kinda the thing, the scene has moments like that that seem to be telling you "this person is bad, and this thing they're doing is bad," but as far as the actual plan goes they're not actually doing anything wrong. And the plan doesn't give the antagonist any power or any way to affect the outcome of the plan now that it's set in motion, so even if it was a case where he is evil and you're can't trust him to do good, it's not a plan that would actually make him any more able to do evil, so the plan being framed as so horrific is really goofy to me.

    Binary Domain is a god damn trip. It was my first encounter with RGG Studios, before Yakuza blew up. It is SUCH a 7th-gen game, it's almost painful. Cover shooting, squad mechanics, turret sections on a train, bland white man protagonist, big black man squadmate, mandatory love interest. And yes, everyone is suddenly racist when they find out there are human-machine children, even though they are just normal people, because they are stated to be 'superior' to normal humans, and all the human characters are threatened by the idea of there being a race that will 'replace' them. And it is funny that the main character is the only one who is not racist to the hybrids despite him being the most racist to robots, but that's because [[SPOILERS]]

      Historically they’ve played some fucked up stuff, and Binary Domain in particular was the second excessively American attempt at capturing the west’s attention that the excessively Japanese Yakuza devs tried, after the considerably much worse Yakuza Dead Souls. It’s easy to lump it into “games that are very interesting but are not technically deep or fun” like Drakengard 1 or Deadly Premonition. According to Pat, it is way more fun on a mechanical level than those sorts of games, it’s also just fucking weird since the usual Yakuza wackiness is not partitioned off into substories and is in fact part of the main experience.

    If that game ever gets a sequel it would be crazy if it revealed the whole "hunt the human robots" plan backfired because the public realised if anyone of them, or their loved one, could potentially be one of them or a hybrid they wouldn't want to be hunted down and killed, which gained traction after several people were accidentally killed on faulty info. So after a series of protests and investigations, the whole matter was dismissed on the grounds of "Ignorance is bliss" but also because no government wanted to risk the public outcry. With that the only threat remaining are radicals willing to kill whomever to wipe out the robots, leading to our squad being reformed with the goal now to protect instead of hunt.

    To address the main question, there are many cases of "Laughably Insane Levels of Racism" in video games. One may think of obvious answers like human augmentation in Deus Ex and to a much lesser degree Cyberpunk. Dwarf-elf hate that was picked up? Oh, it is eternal. But when i think what would be the most extreme option, i think of Warhammer 40K - the sentient races are contending for the right to be the one who hates others the most. Fully weaponized racism from everyone to everyone. If a single person in that universe would take Woolie advice and just talked, there might be less war. A little less. A tiny itty bitty reduction, perhaps.

    it's not really laughably insane levels of racism, but i played project tamriel morrowind (expands the game from just the island to the ENTIRE province, currently like twice as big as vanilla) as an argonian for the first time last year and there were some really funny moments.
    there was the vanilla moment of when i walked up to some guy to talk to them and their opening line was "hey, argonian, you REALLY need to buy some actual clothes before someone assumes you're an escaped slave", but there was another one from the mod that really got me good. i went south along the aanthirin region to a house indoril fortress, roa dyr, in search of work. it was an extremely beautiful settlement with very striking architecture, and the servants and beaurocrats (several of which were house slaves) were polite enough in offering work. however, when i was walking through the fortress, i managed to stumble into the lord of the fortress - and when i talked to him, he told me something like "Return to whatever mongrel province spawned you, N'wah (dunmer slur meaning foreigner), and never taint my presence again." and then refused to speak to me. it really hit me out of left field because usually people only hit you with the death threats and racist slurs if they REALLY don't like you, and that character had really high personality (and atrocious speechcraft), so my terribly charismatic lizard made very good first impressions.
    an indoril mayor also once gave me a bible as a reward for completing a bounty, claiming that enlightenment is a better reward for a task well done than gold. i was so insulted that i headed west to do mercenary work for their political rival.

      Racism is a core part of the worldbuilding in Tamriel, and I mean that with complete sincerity. Everyone hates each other for past slights and so many sins have been committed leading up to the present that half the time it almost feels justified for them to feel that way. It was never unintentional, Bethesda wrote the TES to be a racist world where people can't let the past go, and everyone is clearly wrong in how they feel but justify it to themselves every step of the way because "if they won't let it go then why should I?"

    As far as the Vanquish bit goes, playing the game on God Hard difficulty gets rid of the upgrade system entirely, so you can just do that.
    If you ask me, the worst part of Vanquish is that you overheat after performing a single melee attack, which is a much bigger roadblock for one's enjoyment than having to pick up a weapon twice to upgrade it.

    • @foo3268
      @foo3268 Рік тому +13

      Vanquish is one of those games that has silly little flaws that can be so easily fixed with some hindsight and a sequel of a bit higher budget. I felt the same way playing Dead Space:
      "Switching weapons is kinda clunky"
      "Why ever switch from the plasma cutter?"
      "I don't really enjoy the same encounter over and over"
      "I ran out of things to buy"
      The soul and brilliance was there, so the second one came out, polished the issues, and boom, one of the GOATs,
      I believe that if Vanquish 2 ever comes out, they really don't need to do much to make it a blast.

    Interestingly, from a perspective Faye (the twist in question) is a failure. Amada wants to create more of itself by the laws of evolution. However faye being completely human (with better traits, maybe) is a failure. It has no discernable machinery and that means he has not passed on his traits he has only managed to enhance human ones. Those 108 children from hollow females are failures. Amada wants to breed hollow children, but all he did was create humans, no detectable machinery hardly any different then the nanomachines used to upgrade the characters in game. No hybridization just humanity .The Ai Amada technically has failed. And in doing so has cruelly made machines that suffer only to suffer. Essentially it refuses to accept that it is artifical life and can only be constructed but not bred. It is experiencing denial. It wants be part of nature but can only assist the natural order, never be a part of it. Tragic really. It claims its children will be immune from disease and erratic decisions and all of humanity's faults. Yet the game shows the opposite, the hollow child in the beginning is driven mad by its existence. And as the children (the direct offspring) seem to be majority biological diseases will adapt (hence stronger immune system but not...er...immune).Also emotions ensure irrationality, it the double edged sword of having them.
    Just a thought i had.

    I don't remember if the wombs and eggs are fully artificial or if the eggs are from a human or something. I don't remember details. But far as I recall, those born from a robot are still all meat. They're not some weird bio-mechanical creatures. They're just Meat.

      The details the villain got into was mostly eliminating disease and harmful genetic abnormalities. They essentially *were* test tube babies. There is a potential debate one could have about how ethical that is, and maybe stopping the villain to have a rational discussion about how to proceed with it. But the game paints it like the entire concept is pure evil to most of the characters. Even at it's potential worst, he wasn't doing it out of any sort of malice or attempt at genocide or anything like that.

    • @fifthfan

      Yes, that is his justification for doing what he did, but you have to remember the world's setting.
      Why are we infiltrating Japan in the first place, what do rust crews do?
      Human like robots were outlawed by the rest of the world through the new geneva convention, and rust crews would hunt down those trying to make them. Japan had gone full isolationist for decades and now you have human like robots showing up in the rest of the world, one of them being a General.
      Now you have almost perfect infiltraters made from outlawed tech on your front lawn. Which is compounded when you learn about the children, now they're the prefect infiltraters/army, and are genetically superior to regular humans in every way.
      Now that I think about it, violation of the Geneva Convention is usually called a war crime, so in that universe the equivalent of a dirty bomb has been used and is actively making the sequel, dirty bomb 2. Not necessarily in killing scale, but in how negatively people would react to it.

    One of these humans being a brain in a robot body essentially, and they don’t give him a second thought that he’s a human which I find really funny. Like literally what is the difference by that point? If your brain was born in a jar or came from an actual human body originally I guess?

    What Woolie misses about Like A Dragon and Binary Domain is that when those games do their dumb, zany shit, it's doing it sincerely.

There is no wink and nod to the camera (aside from that time in the English dub with the foreigner speaking English) about how silly things are, it accepts that the zany shit is as valid as the "serious" stuff.
